migrated to Kansas, locating in Osborne Co, near Alton and in 1875 they came to Washington Co,
where the father bought 320 acres of land in Coleman township.
There the children attended the Rock School. The family home was large and spacious and there they

In 1894 the family moved from this county to Washington State with the exception of Harry F.
